Of course VGChartz is going to be off in places they can only extrapolate and guess at numbers.

They guessed at the 360 numbers in others, and were off by 200k, so they re-adjusted. The same has happened for the Wii, but were off a bit more.

This shows that Nintendo has sold approx. 2.5m Wiis in 3 months, or about 800k per month.

Johnlucas is going to eat some major crow come July :)

Good thing I went out on a rope and stated that the Wii won't overtake the 360 this year (atleast fully).


*Yawn*

I'm writing up a quick piece for Popzart as we speak. Check Wii's news channel it's right on there under Technology section. UP 77%. Hell yeah!

We'll see who's laughing last in July. Remember my prediction doesn't become garbage until August 1. I always said WITHIN July. Check my history.

360's a sitting duck in the water just waiting to be passed.

Its still possible - but it will be tough. The moving of those big 360 releases to September will help.

Nintendo will make about 1.2m / month - but that's on average. Extra 2m for Xmas, and its 1m/month. 3 months = 3m - which leaves the Wii about 250k behind the 360 (assuming the 360 sells NO units which won't happen). At 200k/month in the US, that's another 600k - probably closer to 1m (worldwide) - in the next month. Leaving the Wii about 1m behind start of August.

We'll see of course... your prediction is still possible (just unlikely ;).
